Spectacular views, exhilarating landscapes - Took the coach through Olden, up through the valley of picturesque lakes, green pastures and pretty houses to Briksdal glacier. The terminus is effectively a visitor centre with 2 cafés, shops, toilets etc. We hired a “troll car” - a big chauffeured open buggy - to take us 75% of the way. The walk is lovely but steep. Then went up to the bottom of the glacier where meltwater enters the raging stream. The views all around are spectacular.

Olden, Norway Glacier - Our excursion to the Glacier was perfect! We met our tour operator Elisabet right at the terminal. We took a very comfortable bus to the base of the glacier where we then hiked for about 45 mins to the glacier. The walk was not too strenuous and very beautiful. Elisabet was very knowledgeable and ensured that we had a very enjoyable experience. I would highly recommend this tour with Elisabet!!

Lovely Day! - Beautiful hike. Be prepared for hills by layering. You will get warm, but up top it’s cold by the glacier.
